The first time that I can remember thinking systematically about politics was when I was seven. I was in hospital with appendicitis. My parents came in to see me the night after my operation and I told them not to stay too long or they’d be late to vote – for Philip Snowden. Then when I was ten I went to West Australia where my uncle was an Australian MP and later President of the Upper House. That was my first visit to a politician. P F P, Lc Fm, Ff Pm Lc, Fa
